One day the botanist Jussieu was
herborizing on the Cordilleras. when
he suddenly found himself inebriated
nv the most delicious perfume. He
looked around. expecting to discover
some splendid flower. but perceived
nothing but some pretty clumps Of .
gentle green. from the bottom Of which
little capsul es Of a faded blue color were
detaching themselves. He observed
that the flowers turned toward the sun.
and he therefore gave it the name OF
hcliotrope. Charmed with his acquisi-'
t;on he collected some of the seeds and
cent them to the Jardin du Roi. The
French ladies were charmed with it.
and made Of it q floral pet They

soon spread to other parts OF the world.

There are far more cattle fattened

than in stables. This assertion will
mold good for very many years in tho
United States. vet how many feeders

Have you racks for hay and boxes for
corn? A majority have not! Why
waste good fodder and grain by having
it I. amplcd into the ground, or so de-
filed that stock can not eat it? No
matter how plentiful fodder may be.
or how cheap corn may be, il it will
pay to raise and harvest it. it will pay
to take care of it.
The same is especially true of hogs.
When fed on the ground about one
quarter Of the grain is muddied or lost.
The hog likes clean food; will not eat
that not clean unless forced to; cattle
and sheep will not. unless forced there
to by starvation. Many otherwise
good farmers build n pen in the field
where hogs are fed. aud throw from
thence the corn daily TO the hogs on
the ground. 1t will pay to cover the
crib. that the corn does not become
wet and then freeze Frozen corn can
not be broken down by either the teeth
of hogs or cattle, aud hence much
passes through the animals undigcsted.
The thawing out Of grain in the stom-
achs of animals is not good policy:
neither is it good policy to throw feed
of any kind on the ground. Fit ur

WHITE HOUSE LUNCHES.

The Lavish Hospitality Prseticed Under
the Jackson and Van Bnrcn Regimes.
Andrew jackson entertained lavishly
on the night of his first Inauguration.
The carpets of the east room were
ruined by the orange punch and lem
onade which were served to the crowd
which came TO his reception. Barrels
OF this punch were made. and it Was
brought into the room in buckets. At
last the people began TO rush for the
walters as soon as they entered the
room. Glasses were broken and ladies'
dresses ruincl. Tubs Of punch were
finally taken into the garden. and in
this way the throng was drawn off aud
it was possible to serve cake and wine
to the ladies.
At Jackson's farewell reception a
monster cheese. rs big rs hogsheat;
in circumference and nearly yard
thick. was cut with saw-blades made
into knives and served out to the guests.
Each guest received three pounds Of
cheese. The event was the talk of the
nation, and when Van Buren, became
President his New York friends, emu
lxtivc Of jackson. sent him big
cheese. It was cut up in the east
room. The greasy crumbs falling upon
the carpet were trampled into it. and
the ruination of the furniture during
these two administrations led tho
later Presidents to discontinue the
practice OF serving eatables at general
receptions. Now no guest comes to a
dinner At the White House unless in
vited In Van Buren's day. Bacourt.

that the Presidents cook told his valet
that for several months preceding tho
election,of 1910 many persons arrived

dinner. and threatened to vote against

all the trouble possible in satisfying
them, and they often returned what he
sent up. doing so on the pretext that
it was uneatable. and Ordered some
